I don’t participate in the full contact sport that is Black Friday, but I am leaving the house today in order to see the 88 second teaser of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. So, whether you’re taking a break from shopping or waiting in line to see Penguins of the Force Awakens or Big Force Awakens Hero 6, take a break and enjoy this week’s Cosplay Friday. I’ve found impressive cosplay from Young Justice, ReBoot, Catching Fire, and more. Take a look:

The Tadashi costume is spot on, but mostly I’m just thinking about hugging Baymax. Anyway, tell me about your favorite cosplay in this week’s gallery. Don’t forget that you can always share cosplay pics with me at Twitter.

For example: should you drink a bottle of mead at a crime scene? What kind of gang activity are Argonian teens getting up to just outside the city limits? Will Officer Jenkins ever learn how to hold his liquor? Or find the killer stalking Whiterun’s streets for that matter? All of these questions and more will be answered in the latest episode of COPS: Skyrim.

Gaming Heads has announced a new collectible in its The Elder Scrolls Shrine Series: The Shrine of Azura.

And while Gaming Head’s first statue, the Shrine of Talos, stood at 14″ tall, Azura, the Daedric Prince of Dusk and Dawn will stand 18″ tall, with the Exclusive Edition of the Azura statue featuring a faux bronze finish.

Though the standard shrine will cost you $209.99, the exclusive edition will only set you back an additional $20. The statue of Azura won’t release until the end of the year, but you may want to be quick in purchasing the items. There are only 750 standard statues available worldwide and 350 faux-bronze statues.

And if you’re wondering why the Daedric Prince is depicted as a woman, in The Elder Scrolls games, Azura is always depicted as a female, and is also known as Mother of the Rose, Queen of the Night Sky, and the Anticipation of Sotha Sil. /end nerdiness.

The countdown to The Elder Scrolls Online just got hotter than a Flame Atronach, because Bethesda has unveiled The Elder Scrolls Online: Imperial Edition, a premium package that will retail for $99.99.

Not too keen on having to sell all of your strategic cabbage reserves to get all those extra bells and whistles? Don’t worry — Bethesda is also offering a digital Imperial Edition for $79.99, which includes the core game and the bonus digital content. Saving $20 and getting a miniature Zoidberg to gallivant around the plains of Tamriel with us? Yes, please!

COPS: Skyrim is back and the boys in blue (and yellow, and red, and gray) are here to make sure no sweet roll goes stolen, no prostitution ring goes unstung, and no internal affairs case goes unresolved.

In this epic battle of willpower, wits, and patience with the taxpayers, who will win? Who will die?

From Bryan Basham, the Skooma-swilling mastermind behind the Nerdist Channel original series COPS: Skyrimand The Real World: Whiterun, comes this commercial for what looks like a surefire lock for whatever the Imperial equivalent of a Tony Award is (a Talos-y?), or at the very least a Daedra Desk award.

Our only regret is that this commercial for the 6-week only production doesn’t include the showstopping number “Carry Your Burdens (I’m Sworn To)”. Alas and alackaday. Maybe we’ll finally hear its dulcet tones in the Act II DLC.
